Kastaplast
SKU: DG-KP-K1G-KAXE (REF2241-3)
Description
The Kastaplast K1 Glow Kaxe midrange is the king of the middle section of the flight chart, molded in K1 Glow plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on shaped mid-power shots. Kastaplast is a Swedish disc golf company, and many of its molds carry Swedish names.
K1 Glow Plastic
K1 Glow has the same properties as the durable K1 line, powered with a long-lasting glow. Charging it with a UV light gives the best, longest-lasting results.
The Mold
The retooled Kaxe takes the best of the original Kaxe and the Kaxe Z. It's easy to shape for mid-power shots and solves problems at both short and longer distances.
Stability
The Kaxe is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |

| Speed | 6 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |
